Hey guys. i am in the process of backing up atm, and i need more opinions of what you might back up. i currently have vista home prem and im going pro, so im doing a clean install (also recommended to do a clean install).

here is a list of what i have so far:

-CFGS (+maps and such for games)
-firefox backups (bookmarks, personal preferences)
-installations
-movies
-music
-screenshots of desktop and wallpaper (for icon ordering)
-school documents
-stuff (as said before, programs and other random things)
-list of installed programs
-backup of registry (someone told me to)
-backup of drivers (i used driver checker)

but yeah, any other possible suggestions? i also have my driver disc sent by dell just in case =)

Thanks!
